KickStart Your .NET Mocking

Getting started with mocking can be hard. In this article, I describe the path that I took on my way to becoming a frequent mocker.

Telerik Reporting to drop .NET2.x, .NET3.0, VS2005 and VS2008 support in Q2 2013

Yes, it is about time, and you, our users, have confirmed it in the several polls we ran on the topic. As of Q2 2013 (expected in June 2013), Telerik Reporting will stop supporting .NET2.x, .NET3.0x as well as VS2005 and VS2008. This way the small percentage of our users still using .NET2 and .NET3.0 have several months to migrate their projects to newer .NET versions (.NET 3.5 SP1, .NET4.x). Alternatively, these projects can continue to run against .NET2 or .NET3.0, but they will not be able to use newer versions of Telerik Reporting. Why the change?

Asserting Behavior with JustMock

JustMock is a great tool for abstracting dependencies in unit tests, and the new automocking feature makes it even faster to develop unit tests. Another great feature in JustMock and JustMock Lite is the capability to assert the behavior of your system under test. Traditional TDD (Test Driven Testing) unit testing typically tests for state. Did the user get logged in? Did the user’s shopping cart get loaded? Important tests, of course. But that only tests the end result of the method. If the user does NOT successfully login, and the cart is not reloaded, is that because the call to the repository was never called? Or because some error happened that didn’t reload the cart in this particular use case? The state of the application is correct, but is that because it executed the expected behavior, or because we got lucky?

Mocking Constructors with JustMock

In .NET there are two types of constructors, instance constructors and static constructors. Instance constructors are called when objects are instantiated, while static constructors get called before any member of the class is invoked for the first time.

Evolving Simple Wireframes With AppMock

In an earlier post I introduced the initial wire-frame design for an application that I’ll be creating from scratch in XAML and C#, tentatively named Conference Buddy. As noted in that article, Phil Japikse will be creating the same application in HTML/JavaScript and Michael Crump will be creating the companion application for Windows Phone 8. As we think about and design (and re-design), we’ve switched over to a Telerik AppMockPage1show case application named AppMock , available in the Windows Store.
